책소개

『미네르바 인문 읽기와 쓰기: 인간과 세계』는 기초 교양교육의 핵심 과목으로 한국외국어대학교의 모든 1학년 신입생들이 1학기에 이수하는 기초 필수 과목입니다. 한국외국어대학교의 고유가치인 세계시민의 기본 덕목으로서 세계화 시대에 필요한 융·복합적 사고 능력과 창의력을 함양할 수 있도록 고전 인문 읽기와 글쓰기를 연계하여 구성했습니다. ‘인문 읽기’는 동서양의 고전 작품들을 읽음으로써 인류의 보편적 문제와 가치를 이해하고 폭넓은 사고의 기반을 만들어가는 작업입니다. 인류가 문명을 이루어 나가는 과정에서 정신적 발전을 이룬 사상적 토대를 조명하고 분석하여 미래에 대한 새로운 비전을 탐구하고자 하는 것입니다. 우주, 인간, 철학, 역사, 문명, 종교, 예술, 문학, 정치, 경제 등 다양한 분야의 고전 인문학의 원전을 읽으며 분석과 토론을 통하여 논리적이면서 동시에 창의적 사고 능력을 길러 현대문명에 대한 비판적 성찰이 가능한 교양을 체화하는 것이 목적입니다. ‘글쓰기’ 작업은 텍스트를 읽고 서로의 의견을 교환하면서 의사소통을 하고, 자기의 생각을 글로 표현함으로써 깊이 있는 학문적 사고를 배양하는 훈련으로서, 비판적 사고 능력과 합리적 소통능력을 키워가는 데 도움을 줄 것입니다.
